The review

Worth a try. That is where Elapid Stone lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Kobraa.

Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Kobraa's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

It is sold as an extrait — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.

At $159 per 100ml it costs 51% less than Kobraa — the 2nd cheapest of 2 twins we can price.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Perfume Parlour publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

What it is chasing: cardamom and coriander up top, tobacco and Tonka Bean in the middle, vanilla, woody notes and amber underneath — the shape of Bvlgari Kobraa.

Top

  • cardamom
  • coriander

Heart

  • tobacco
  • Tonka Bean

Base

  • vanilla
  • woody notes
  • amber
Sweet pipe tobacco coiled around tonka and vanilla; rich, dark and quietly hypnotic.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.

How it ranks against the other twins

Of the 2 twins of Bvlgari Kobraa we can price, Elapid Stone is number 2 on price per 100ml.
